What better way to kick off the school year than with baseball, BBQ, and new friends? The ̳ Dental Alumni Association rolled out a big welcome for the incoming dental and dental hygiene classes with a night at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday, September 2nd.

Students, alumni, faculty, and staff came together to cheer on the Royals as they faced the Los Angeles Angels. The evening started with a tailgate full of grilled favorites, laughs, games and plenty of school spirit. And while the Royals didn’t snag the win, the memories made were a victory.

Here’s to another great year—and another great tradition at the “K”!
